Vander Blue added 17 for Marquette (6-2), including two 3-pointers to beat the shot clock in the first half. Davante Gardner had 10 points, eight rebounds and three blocks off the bench for the Golden Eagles.

Ryan Evans and Jared Berggren each scored nine to lead Wisconsin (6-4), which never led in the intense rivalry game.
